Yeah. Sad really. Actually, I have one question. How does the President know who voted for which bill? Aren't they supposed to be a secret? This is not the naive question. This is the disappointed qsn. We don't need a bunch of Yes men and rubber stamps around the President.

LinkedIn has picked it up 🇿🇲

Pieces like this make me feel proud to be Zambian. #Mulekeni_atwalilile.

Beautiful Ode to the late Chief Mphezeni

I'll always say this, @LauraMiti's description of PF and UPND as twins is the best. The differences are there, but you really need to nitpick to tell them apart. And the players in the game know it. Let this election cycle pass, so that we see who's we should be considering next.

Now comes my third of the the few political posts I will make on social media as Zambia heads to the polls this year. This is food for thought for UPND political strategists. This is not based on any empirical analysis and is mostly opinions. UPND will likely have an easy path in the 2026 elections. That much appears clear. But what came out from the nomination process was a clear disorganization and signs of discontent among party members who were not adopted as candidates. They may not say that now because of allegiance to the republican president. But serious internal cracks are beginning to form in the UPND. These disagreements are just the beginning. They will intensify as the battle to eventually succeed President HH begins. In fact, the ouster of Garry Nkombo may be an early sign that internal positioning has already started. Shortly after the elections, key UPND members will begin to openly position themselves for influence ahead of 2031. I think HH already has an idea who may replace him. His philosophy in education is key. Whoever is hoping to get the blessings of the President will more likely be educated, young, visionary and someone who has been with HH for some time. Some opposition parties seem to understand this reality. Their premature declarations of victory in 2026 may not necessarily reflect real expectations of winning this election. Rather, they appear to be playing the long game. They know they can’t beat this president. They are building local party structures, being visible on the socials, and showing some political relevance now for what could become a far more open and competitive race in 2031. So UPND strategists need to think long term. HH is clearly a strong candidate. Whoever takes over after him will need to be stronger or else, in 2031 it we be dununa reverse all over again. PS: As a spectator of UPND politics, a name i will be watching for in the UPND is the Special Assistant (Legal) to the President Christopher Mundia, unless he does not want the top job. He was my junior at Kafue Boys Secondary School but one heck of a debater.

This is stupid. Spirit of the law was if you wanna be president, uwfwile wakwatako iskulu, atleast Ka g12 The letter of the law literally say says: minimum. That's right. MINIMUM. I'm betting she has bachelor's degree(god forbid more) when I say "She's overqualified, you dolts!"

One of my favourite things in life is finding a like minded person, expressing an idea, exactly how I would have wanted to. This lady did that on the Lungu case. She was very objective(I am not), but I love how she has presented the State, which is the side I am on, up to a point

RT @BallyWannabe:

Condolences to the Ngoni people. The man was a legend. Spoke truth to power. Saw Presidents come and go. A man man among men. Nkosi wama Nkosi!

It is a personal aim of mine to create a page/reputation where no matter what I say, I have a verifiable publicly available source. To argue based on data that anyone can check. Simply because if there is something I do not like, it's being called a liar.

Condolences to the Ngoni people!

Agreeing to a State Funeral, everything is organized & coming pa last minute ati "Dad wanted abcd" is fundamentally why the Kaunda family lost. The Judge added: 1. He was special 2. State funeral implies State protocols 3. Public interest overides private interest

On deciphering Late ECL's wishes. If the Court holds that his wife makes the final decision(based on Bo Sishuwa's testimony), family wins Ironically, in life, how he handled KK's burial(private vs public) could be the sticking point if the decision goes against the family.

This is a good objective thread. What it lacked, in the end is the Alternative. HH will need to be replaced by a real flesh and blood political creature. This is a reality we cannot escape regardless of what is at stake.

Dear Sir, @S_Musokotwane years ago sir, I expressed sadness at the "back to sq 1" nature of your assignment. The pain and embarrassment of reworkn our debt, something we'd hoped wouldn't resurface in my lifetime. -Debt-restructured -$6.2bn reserves -ECF done Congratulations!!!

Every once in a while, democracy takes a form people do not like. People consistently, in large numbers picking the same party, same leaders Working 2gether to avoid internal conflict when it can easily destroy them. Baba, Do your version of democracy kwanu. It is allowed

It won't. There CAN be violence. But the opposition leaders hold the key there. Can they afford it? As for a coup? No way. Maybe like 0.1% chance. There's a legend that Civilian incumbents RB and ECL were told their time was up by their Army Commanders. Their own appointees.
